Other Services

Maternity - When you have found out about your pregnancy, you can speak to the receptionist and they will provide you with the initial pregnancy pack, where you will then be able to make an appointment directly with the Midwife.If you did want to see the GP to discuss your pregnancy then you are more than welcome to make an appointment with a GP. Your care will be the responsibility of the community midwife. It is ideal to register the newborn baby after the birth with the GP as soon as possible and we are encouraging parents to please make their first vaccination appointment at this time. The baby will have to have reached 8 weeks. The receptionists will work out the 8th week for you on registering your newborn to the surgery.

Post Natal Checks - It is advised that both mother and baby should arrange an appointment with the GP, for post natal and a 6 week baby check.

Well Woman and Well Man Clinics - appointments are available with one of our nurses for checks to be carried out.

Contraception - advice and services are available by appointment with either a GP or a nurse.

Minor Ops - our nurses and/or doctors are able to carry out some minor operations such as excisions and cautery at the surgery.

NHS Health Checks - once you have received your invitation for a NHS check, please contact the surgery and let the receptionist know and then they will generate a blood test form, as you need to have this done two weeks prior to your appointment.

Travel Vaccinations

The Reynard and Whitehouse Surgery are no longer offering a travel health advice service or certain travel vaccinations.

Patients will be advised to contact a travel advice centre for information that they require for their holiday/travel.

There are various travel centre clinics in Cambridge, Ipswich and Bury St Edmunds for example, which provide a full travel health service. You will have to book appointments with a clinic of your choice. You can access this information about clinics via NHS Choices.

Please ask the receptionist to print a copy of your vaccinations, for your record and for you to take to the travel clinic.

If the receptionist cannot see any records and you think you have had vaccinations in the past, then the receptionists will ask a Practice Nurse to check your paper records. Please allow time for the Practice Nurse to do this.

The fees charged are based on the British Medical Association (BMA) suggested scales and our reception staff will be happy to advise you about them along with appointment availability.

Chaplaincy Service

As from Tuesday 3rd July 2018 we will be offering a Chaplaincy service at the Reynard Surgery Red Lodge. Gordon Anderson will be available for pastoral appointments every Tuesday morning between 9.30 – 12:00. If you would like to make an appointment to see Gordon, or for any other information, please contact Reception.

It is important that your child immunisation programme is kept up to date, therefore we offer appointments with a Nurse.

Every Tuesday afternoon is a baby vaccination clinic which is alternated between Reynard and White House Surgery. The second Tuesday of every month, we offer baby vaccinations morning and afternoon. Please ensure you clarify with the receptionists which surgery your appointment is at.

The Nurses do not vaccinate your baby whilst they are on a short course of antibiotics or have a raised temperature. If you are concerned about this, you are welcome to ring the Nurse on the day of your appointment, if you think that your child is unwell.

The vaccinations are a minimum of 4 weeks apart. We do ask that you book the next vaccination straight after your appointment to avoid delay.

Child vaccinations begin at 8 weeks. If you have any queries, regarding your child's vaccinations, please contact the Nurse.
